By A Customer
This review is from: Creepy Creatures (Hardcover)
The subject matter - Nature's most awesome characters - automatically gets the attention of any child or adult. This book gives the natural history of the creatures in a very successful mix of entertainment and education. It's always encouraging to see books produced which make children eager to read, as well as promoting an interest in nature.

Entertaining, educational, and a visual treat as well!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Creepy Creatures (Hardcover)
This book is popular with children visiting our nature library. They are as interested in the animal information as they are in the wonderful illustrations. The author does a great job of capturing children's interest while relaying important concepts and details.
